Abstract

Pericardial fat pad in transverse sinus adjacent to left atrial appendage (LAA) is a rare condition that may resemble LAA thrombosis especially in suspected cases. More Trans-esophageal echocardiography (TEE) angulations and also 3D TEE images are helpful tools to confirm the diagnosis. © 2020 The Authors.
